Let's face it just because new cameras come out on an ongoing basis, earlier cameras do not become obsolete; Mike V keeps reminding us of that all the time.
I suspect video will become a standard on all new DSLR's. If the rumored specs of the D400 are to be believed then those who want the best DX camera out there, with video that is likely to be equivalent to the 5DMkII, should be happy.
The quality of DX has probably reached a plateau, and near future advances will probably be incremental improvements in things like noise, speed, and dynamic range.
Anyone have any ideas what the next big thing might be, now that video is becoming standard?

hehehe... guilty

Next big thing? I would like to see wireless internet for those long safety stops

I have been getting ready to pull the trigger on a D700 but I just may wait to see what happens in the next few weeks. Full frame means having to get another lens which means additional expense. Nothing cheap about photography.
